In the study presented in this paper, the deterioration in the performance of an industrial gas turbine during the operation design point was simulated by using the thermodynamic principle and a multi feedforward artificial neural networks (MFANN) system. Initially the thermodynamic model was...

This paper reviews and discusses the potential of papaya seed and stone fruit kernel biodiesels - the two sources of 2nd generation transport biodiesels in Australia. The challenges associated with biodiesel production and their possible solutions, particularly on feedstock selection, oil...

Qatari policymakers must balance domestic energy needs with the economic imperative to maximise hydrocarbon exports. We have modelled the optimal evolution of Qatar's electricity system over the next few decades, with the goal of quantifying the potential for solar energy (and other low-carbon...
